Invest in Mauritius

From a mono-crop economy, resting on the cultivation of sugar cane, Mauritius has successfully transformed itself into a robust, diversified, innovative and knowledge-driven economy. The government is fostering a conducive business environment to strengthen the island's position as a leading investment destination.

Africa is full of promise and untapped riches. It has approximately 30 percent of the earth's remaining mineral resources, nearly 60 percent (over 200 million hectares) of the world available arable land and 13 percent of the world population. To that end, the Government is implementing pro-African policies to improve the investment climate and market access conditions to make Mauritius a relevant platform for Africa.

Vatel Mauritius

Vatel decided to open a school in Mauritius in 2009 for two reasons. First, because of the worldwide recognition of the Mauritian hospitality industry. Secondly, because of the government’s vision to develop Mauritius as a knowledge hub. After 6 years of operation, our strategy, well supported by EDB, has been successful.
